Two terrific flapjack recipes demonstrated by Miriam Nice, make the most of your oats.
Points to remember:
- To make basic flapjacks you'll need 100g soft brown sugar, 200g butter and three tablespoons of golden syrup.
- Heat gently until smooth and syrupy.
- Pour the hot syrup mixture onto 300g oats and stir really thoroughly to make sure the oats are fully coated.
- Tip the mixture into a deep sided 20cmx20cm tin lined with baking parchment, which has been greased with butter. Bake at 150C/130 fan/gas 2 for 40-45mins.
- Leave the flapjack to cool in the tin for five minutes before scoring and cutting into squares or triangles.
- You can vary the basic flapjack recipe in many ways, for example instead of using all butter you can use a mixture of butter and peanut butter, or use grated apple in place of some of the sugar as in our feelgood flapjack recipe.
- Flapjacks are really versatile so you can flavour them as you like why not try our flapjacks with ginger icing.Tip: The formula for basic flapjacks is really easy to remember if you think 1,2,3 (100g soft brown sugar, 200g butter, 300g oats and three tablespoons golden syrup.
